The mission of the Chicago Jazz Philharmonic, founded and led by Artistic Director, Orbert Davis (famed jazz artist and trumpeter), is to present high quality musical performances and music education programs that will bridge gaps in genre, artistry and diversity. The organization seeks to become an internationally respected orchestra defined by its cross collaborations in jazz, classical, and other musical genres while working with schools to provide a linear track for music instruction, performance and enrichment from kindergarten through college.
